Content creator Tshepi Vundla and Idols Judge Tabure Thabo Bogopa Junior, professionally known as JR Bogopa are preparing to tie the knot. Tshepi has endured years of online teasing for her long-term relationship with music producer and Idols SA judge JR for not being married. The couple had been together for over a decade and have two children together – 5 year old boy, Sibabalwe Bogopa and 10 month old baby girl, Liyema Bogopa.
Tshepi took to Instagram to announce what seemed to be the beginning of her Lobola negotiations. Posing with her fiancé, she was dressed modestly in a semi-traditional dress, covered her shoulders with a shawl, wore a doek and had a gorgeous ring on her ring finger and captioned her picture : “?? ❤️?”
